(a)- The earth's orbit around the sun is shaped like an
egg (elliptical).(b)-
The earth bulged before collision to be an EGG-SHAPED, and as it rotates around
its own axle, it also resembles an egg-shape.
(c)- The earth is shaped like an egg.

And the earth after that He has spherically expanded
Brought forth from it its water and pasture
and theMOUNTAINS
HE SET FIRMLY.

Indeed, scientists have proven that:

1-
The earth has spherically expanded.

2-
The earth produced its water and pasture on a large scale as a
result.I
have posted a Scientific Video from History Channel proving this:

3-
The mountains due to this expansion were formed;due
to the plate tectonics movements,
which caused for land to be pushed on top of each other, which
formed mountains and hills. You can learn about this at:

Below in this article, we'll
see the ample proofs that the earth was indeed
SPREAD OUT SPHERICALLY.
And Scientists have proven that water does indeed originate from its
planets when they're hot enough and are located in the Goldilocks
Zone when orbiting their sun.

As thoroughly detailed in this detailed article,
I thoroughly demonstrated using 7 encyclopedic dictionaries that
DAHA دحاها
means:

3- To make
something roll,
as inDAHA
the barrel from the top of the hill,
which means he rolled it down from the top of the hill. Also, this
is where the Arabic word DAHRAJA is derived from, which means to
make something roll down.

4- To make
something round.
I used several examples forROUND
AND BULGED TUMMY,
and making round objects. I even used a Hadith from Prophet
Muhammad, peace be upon him, when he said:

Also the dictionary says:الدحداح هو المستدير الململم The dahdaah is the
person who is ROUND and STOCKY.

و بطنٌ مُنداحُ أي خارخٌ مُدوّر His tummy is
mun-daahun means it is OUT THERE AND ROUND مُدوّر.

So when Allah Almighty DAHA THE EARTH, it means that
Allah AlmightyEXPANDED
IT SPHERICALLYthrough
rotating around itself and moving in its orbit in space. And this
is why Allah Almighty Said after that (after He DAHAHA), He brought
forth from itits
water and pasture.
Science has proven this to be 100% accurate and True:

1-
Water was brought forth from the earth - Science confirmed it and
the Holy Quran claimed it 1400 years ago:

Note:
In Article #3'S video
in the article, the collision of
the iron-planet
made our earth EGG-SHAPED,
according to the Scientists and the video.

In this Hadith, above, he certainly seems to have
known this fact very well. And this Hadith is even older than Sahih
Bukhari. It is important to know that Imam Bukhari and others
have declared that they have
discarded thousands of Hadiths:

"The
twosahihcollections
did not gather the totality of the authenticahadithas
proved by al-Bukhari's
testimony: "I
have not included in my bookal-Jami`but
what is authentic, and I left out among the authentic
for fear of [excessive] length."

"...
Bukhari, collected twenty thousand of them, of which he rejected ten thousand,
accounting them untrue.Of
the remaining ten thousand he accepted only 7,275, declaring the
rest to be untrustworthy.
Abu Da'ud accepted as authentic only 4,800 rules out 50,000."

This is to keep their volumes as simple and manageable as possible.
So it is quite possible that the Prophet spoke about the earth being
spherical, and the Glorious Quran certainly did, and
people just dismissed them as nonsense.
I have covered your question in great details at:

Also, ample proofs for several of the Glorious Quran's Arabic words'
definitions, from
my Arabic-English and
English-Arabic dictionaries, that prove that the earth is indeed
spherical, rotating around its axle, and is suspended in space, are provided in
the following important link:

The Noble Quran is filled with scientific statements and notions. These are
statements of Allah Almighty describing how He created things on earth and in
the Universe. What's most amazing is that all of these scientific statements
and notions had been proven to be in perfect agreement
with science and our modern-day scientific discoveries. Allah
Almighty made the Noble Quran be Prophet Muhammad's (peace be upon him)
Everlasting Divine Miracle and proof for Prophethood. The Holy Book certainly
stood the test of time 1,500 years ago with Its Claims, Prophecies and
Miraculous language eloquence, and it does again and again in our day today with
Its overwhelming agreement with science and discoveries that were not known to
man 1,500 years ago.

With this said, let me now lay down the foundation to make the Truth of Islam
be clearly known by Allah Almighty's Grace and Will. It is important to
know the following:

(a)- Prophet Muhammad, peace be
upon him, did not know everything. Allah Almighty clearly said so in the
Noble Quran:

"And they ask you (O Muhammad SAW) concerning the Rooh
(the Spirit); Say: "The Rooh (the Spirit): it is one of the things, the
knowledge of which is only with my Lord. And of knowledge, you
(mankind) have been given only a little." (The Noble Quran, 17:85)"

Since the Prophet of Islam only knew little,
especially from the unseen, and since he never said that the earth is egg-shaped
or spherical, then it is quite clear that he did not know that the earth was
indeed egg-shaped.

(b)- Allah Almighty in the Noble
Quran did say that the earth is egg-shaped (dahaha),
and that He sent down iron to it:

Again, Dahaha (دحاها)
doesn't just mean egg. It more accurately means making something spherical,
among other meanings such as pushing something, or causing it to roll. It also
means to expand. When Allah Almighty Said that He Daha (دحا)
the earth, it means that Allah Almighty:

1- Expanded the earth spherically.

2- Made it rotate around itself.

3- Travel in its-now stable orbit
around the sun, which made it support life as we know it on earth.
Before that, earth was chaotic and didn't support life. So it was
stabilized by Allah Almighty. This is why in the very next Noble
Verse, Allah Almighty Said that after He DAHAHA (دحاها),
He brought from it its water and pasture.
This clearly and indisputably supports my point that Dahaha means
that earth's rotation around the sun became stable in the goldilocks
zone, and now earth started to produce and support life.
This is also all demonstrated in good
details in the following
video file:

دحا (daha):
الدِّحْية هو رئيس الجُند, و به
سمِّي دِحية الكلبي
Al-dihya is the leader of the soldiers, and from this was named
Dihya Al-Kalbay, who was one of Prophet Muhammad's close
Companions.

الدِّحْية
هو
رئيس القوم و سيدهم Al-dihya is the
chief of the tribe or the group and the BEST AMONG THEM
و سيدهم.

Planet earth is indeed the best planet in our Solar System.
It is the only planet that has water, life and Paradise-like
Scenic Views. The others are dead planets with no life
like that of earth's exists on them. See my notes
about this below.

و بطنٌ مُنداحُ أي
خارخٌ مُدوّرHis tummy is mun-daahun means it is OUT THERE
AND ROUND مُدوّر.

و رجلٌّ دحدحُ اي
قصير غليظ البطنA man is dahda-hun which means he is short, stocky and
has a big and fat tummy.

الدحداح هو المستدير
الململم
The dahdaah is the person who is ROUND and STOCKY.

الدِردِحة من النساء التي
طولها و عرضها سواءAl-dir-dihati from the women is the one
whose height and
width look the same!SHE LOOKS ROUND,
and the by the way, the distance between the earth's north
and south poles is approximately only 45
miles shorter than the earth's width.

[079:030] And the earth,
moreover, hath He extended (to
a wide expanse);

[079:031] He draweth out therefrom its moisture and
its pasture;

Arabic (from right to left):

‏79:30
والارض بعد ذلك
دحاها

‏79:31اخرج منها
ماءها ومرعاها

It also means that Allah Almighty Made a
protective ceiling or umbrella for the earth, which
without it, NO WATER COULD POSSIBLY EXIST ON EARTH!

So based on all of these meanings, what
do we find? We find that:

1- The earth is a moving object
that was pushed or thrown by Allah Almighty into space.

2- The earth is a
qurs and indahhat and is dihdaaha, which means it is a
round and a spherical object.

3- The earth has expanded, and
from that expansion, all of the huge bodies of water that we
have today from oceans, seas, lakes and rivers were extracted
AND/OR FORMED from the earth with the aid of its protective
atmosphere.

4- The earth is mad-hooha (
مدحوحا ), which is
balanded and evened.

5- The earth is dihya, which
means it is the best among its group. This is true since
all of the planets in our solar system are pretty much similar
to our moon. They are lifeless and have no life and no
water in them. Earth, on the other hand, has (1)
ample water, which is why it is called the BLUE PLANET, (2)
ample life, and even (3) Paradise-like views and nature
in places such as Hawaii, Alaska, the Carribeans, places in
Europe, Asia, Africa etc...

6- The earth is also dahdah and
dahdaah, which means it is round and compressed.

7- The earth has a protective
umbrella and ceiling above it.

8- And
again, Dahaha (دحاها)
doesn't just mean egg. It more accurately means making something
spherical, among other meanings such as pushing something, or
causing it to roll. It also means to expand. When Allah Almighty
Said that He Daha (دحا)
the earth, it means that Allah Almighty:

1- Expanded the earth
spherically.

2- Made it rotate
around itself.

3- Travel in its-now
stable orbit around the sun, which made it support life as we know
it on earth. Before that, earth was chaotic and didn't support
life. So it was stabilized by Allah Almighty. This is why in the
very next Noble Verse, Allah Almighty Said that after He DAHAHA (دحاها),
He brought from it its water and pasture.
This clearly and indisputably supports my point that Dahaha means
that earth's rotation around the sun became stable in the goldilocks
zone, and now earth started to produce and support life.

All
of this perfectly fits our planet earth!
And even if we just take the EXPANDED interpretation alone and
leave out the rest, then Noble Verses 79:30-31 are still quite
Miraculous because, indeed the waters that we have today all
came to existence in such a large and massive quantity
ONLY AFTER THE EARTH BEGAN TO EXPAND with
of course the aid of our protective atmosphere; all
working together.

الكفيت (al-kafeet):
القوة على النكاح, القوة على
الجماع
strength for marriage and the strength to have intercourse or to
fertilize,
or to make life.

And in Prophet Muhammad's Hadith:
أتاني جبريل بقدْرٍ يقال لها
الكفيت, فوجدت
قوة أربعين رجلاً في الجماع The Angel Gabriel
put into me the al-kafeet, and I found in
it the strength
of 40 men in sexual intercourse.

Allah Almighty did say: "And We
send the fertilizing winds, then cause the rain to descend
from the sky...(The Noble
Quran, 15:22)"

Allah Almighty also Said: "He
causes the living to emerge from the dead, and brings the
dead out of the living...(The
Noble Quran, 30:19)"

Indeed, the earth:

1- Is running in space.

2- Is rotating around its own
axle.

3- Has the means to create life and/or to
have life fertilized and multipled in it.

4- And it does CONTAIN its
creatures and it does maintain their life and means of living
for them.

5- Notice how in
Noble Verse 77:26, it says:

77:26
احياء وامواتاThe living and the dead.

Indeed, the earth is encompassing to both the
dead and the living, and it does create the
living and recreates the dead, all
through Allah Almighty's Divine Will, Mercy,
Design and Wisdom.

That is
why I translated kifaata in Noble Verse
77:26 to:
moving
fast in space and is encompassing to all of its
creatures and it has the ability to create and
recreate. The word
encompasses all of these meanings, and all of
them PERFECTLY FIT the description of earth!

Furthermore, Allah Almighty Said:

Noble Verse(s) 30:25

Yusuf Ali:

[030:025] And among His Signs is
this, that heaven and earth
stand (move in their fixed courses) by His
Command: then when He calls you, by a single
call, from the earth, behold, ye (straightway) come
forth.

فاستقيموا
اليه (The Noble Quran,
41:6) أي في
التوجه إليهmeans head
towards him, Allah Almighty. Of course, by
going to the Mosque to Pray, by paying Charity, by to going
to Mecca for pilgrimage, etc...

1- Yes indeed, the planet earth
is standing still according to our bodies and it is indeed
balanced! Otherwise, we would all perish!

2- But however, since it was a
known fact that the celestial bodies in Heaven such as the
SUN, MOON, SHOOTING STARS and others were all moving bodies,
then it is obviously safe to also accept this meaning about the
earth also moving to apply to Noble Verse
30:25, especially when we already know that the earth was
mentioned to be ROUND and WAS PUSHED and THROWN INTO SPACE,
as I already thoroughly demonstrated earlier (above) in the word
DAHAHA.

So it is safe to accept the word taqoom
تقوم in Noble Verse
30:25 to mean both FIXED IN THEIR
MOVING COURSES, and for the earth to be standing still AND
BALANCED for the creatures that live on it for the following
reasons:

1- The earth and heaven were
mentioned together in the same Noble Verse.

2- We know that the Heaven is
full of curvy and wavy orbits as I discussed in ARJOON AND
MA'AARIJ earlier (above).

3- We know that the earth is
round and is pushed and thrown in space by Allah Almighty as I
discussed in DAHAHA earlier (above).

4- As to the earth being standing
still, obviously, to us, it is standing still and it is
BALANCED! Otherwise, we would all perish!
More on this when we discuss the function of the
mountains in the Noble Quran and how they prevent the
earth from swaying while it is rotating around its own axle, in
the Noble Quran.

(The following Noble Verse was
suggested to me by brother Mahir,
may Allah Almighty always be pleased with him)

Furthermore, we read in Noble Verse
55:10:

Noble Verse(s) 55:10

Yusuf Ali:

[055:010] It is He Who has
spread
out (set) the earth (on a moving course)
for (His) creatures:

Transliteration:

[055:010] Waal-arda
wadaAAaha
lil-anami

Arabic (from right to left):

‏55:10والارض وضعها للانام

Abdullah Yusuf Ali here translated the word
wadaa' وَضَعَ
as "spread out". But however,
Abdullah Yusuf Ali and all of the English translators of
the Noble Quran that I've listed at
www.QuranSearch.com, with the exception of one, have
translated the very
same exact word, wadaa' وَضَعَ,
as something that is moving,
"hurrying to" , in the Noble Verse
9:47:

Noble Verse(s) 9:47

Yusuf Ali:

[009:047] If they had come out with
you, they would not have added to your (strength) but
only (made for) disorder, hurrying to
and fro in your midst and sowing sedition among you, and
there would have been some among you who would have
listened to them. But God knoweth well those who do
wrong.

[009:047] Had they gone forth with you, they would have
added to you naught but trouble, and would have
hurried to
and fro in your midst, seeking to sow discord among you.
And there are among you those who would listen to you so
as to convey information to them. And ALLAH well knows
the wrongdoers.

Shakir:

[009:047] Had they gone forth with you, they would not
have added to you aught save corruption, and they would
certainly have hurried about
among you seeking (to sow) dissension
among you, and among you there are those who hearken for
their sake; and Allah knows the unjust.

Pickthall:

[009:047] Had they gone forth among you they had added
to you naught save trouble and had hurried to
and fro among you, seeking to cause sedition among you;
and among you there are some who would have listened to
them. Allah is Aware of evil- doers.

Sale:

[009:047] If they had gone forth with you, they had
only been a burden unto you, and had run to
and fro between you, stirring you up to
sedition; and there would have been some among you, who
would have given ear unto them: An God knoweth the
wicked.

Muhammad Al-Hilali & Muhsin Khan:

[009:047] Had they marched out with you, they would
have added to you nothing except disorder, and they
would have hurried about in
your midst (spreading corruption) and
sowing sedition among you, and there are some among you
who would have listened to them. And Allah is the
All-Knower of the Zalimoon (polytheists and wrong-doers,
etc.).

Palmer:

[009:047] Had they gone forth with you they would but
have made you more trouble, and they would have
hurried about
amongst you craving a sedition; amongst
you are some who would have listened to them; but God
knows those who are unjust!

Arberry:

[009:047] Had they gone forth among you, they would
only have increased you in trouble,
and run to and
fro in your midst, seeking to stir up
sedition between you; and some of you would listen to
them; and God knows the evildoers.

Rodwell:

[009:047] Had they taken the field with you, they would
only have added a burden to you, and have
hurried about
among you, stirring you up to sedition;
and some there are among you who would have listened to
them: and God knoweth the evil doers.

So indeed, It is He Who has
set the earth on a
moving course for (His) creatures.

And in the Hadith: Prophet Muhammad, peace be
upon him, came down from mount Arafah, and he had calmness
on him. And then the Prophet AWDA'AA
(began to jog)أوضعin the vallley of mahsar. Abu Ubaida said:الإيضاع
(al-idaa'aa) is the walking in a form
of khabab (jogging [6], page 224).

وَضَعَ wada'aa:
المُوضِع أي المسرع فيها
the mudi'aa is the one who is
SPEEDING.

So as we clearly and indesputably see,
وَضَعَ wada'aa clearly
refers to an action. This action has to do with:
(1)
Carrying, (2) Speeding, and (3) Walking.

All of this perfectly fits our planet earth!
Yes indeed, ‏55:10والارض وضعها للانامIt is He Who has set the earth on a
moving course for (His) creatures.

Furthermore, Allah Almighty Said:

Noble Verse(s) 55:7

Yusuf Ali:

[055:007] And the Firmament has
He raised high
(raised it on a moving course) , and He has set
up the Balance (in it)(of
Justice),

Arabic (from right to left):

‏55:7
والسماء
رفعها ووضع
الميزان

Notice again how وَضَعَ
wada'aa is referring to the balance of the orbital systems in
the Universe. Here, this Noble Verse is referring to the
gravitational balance
that keeps the orbits of the Galaxies, their Solar Systems,
their Planets and their Moon's in place, and not falling into a
massive disarray and out of order and colliding with each others
on a large and massive scale!

If we examine, for instance, our beautiful Solar System's
orbital system and the balance of its planets and their moon's
around our star, the sun, and around each others (the moons
orbiting around their own planets), then we'll see the beautiful and powerful
BALANCE that Allah Almighty has put to keep us SAFE!
Otherwise, our moon would've probably been the first planet to
collide with us. Notice again how
وَضَعَ wada'aa here
perfectly describes that balance in our MOVING UNIVERSE!
So it's the Balance in the Moving Celestial Bodies' orbits, and
in their Solar Systems' Orbits, and in their Galaxies' Orbits
and so on.

And the
meaning forيرفعisسار
ذالك السيرcontinued walking down that
path.

رفع منه (rafa'aa minhu):
ساره (saarahu)
led
him down the path.

رفع (rafa'aa): Going in circular
motions:

رافعني و خافضني
means داورني كل مداورةCaused me to go
in circular motions with him. I believe this is
referring to a circular motion in a real sword fight.

رفع
(rafa'aa): hoist up, to raise, run up, to take
off, deliver, to start, initiate, pass, to boost.

So clearly, Allah Almighty
Said that He has set the
Universe on a moving course, and He has
put the Balance in it.

Furthermore, Allah Almighty Said:

Noble Verse(s) 27:88

Muhammad Al-Hilali & Muhsin Khan:

[027:088]
And you will see the mountains and think them solid, but
they shall pass away
as the passing away of the clouds. The
Work of Allah, Who perfected all things, verily! He is
Well-Acquainted with what you do.

[027:088] When you look at the mountains, you think
that they are standing still.
But they are moving, like the clouds. Such
is the manufacture of GOD, who perfected everything. He
is fully Cognizant of everything you do.

Rodwell:

[027:088] And thou shalt see the mountains, which thou
thinkest so firm, pass away with
the passing of a cloud! 'Tis the work of
God, who ordereth all things! of all that ye do is He
well aware.

[027:088] When you look at the mountains, you think
that they are standing still. But they are
moving, like the clouds. Such is the
manufacture of GOD, who perfected everything. He is
fully Cognizant of everything you do.

Rodwell:

[027:088] And thou shalt see the mountains, which thou
thinkest so firm, pass away with
the passing of a cloud! 'Tis the work of
God, who ordereth all things! of all that ye do is He
well aware.

Palmer:

[027:088] And thou shalt see the mountains, which thou
dost deem solid, pass away like
the passing of the clouds;- the work of
God who orders all things; verily, He is well aware of
what ye do!

Arberry:

[027:088] and thou shalt see the mountains, that thou
supposest fixed, passing by like
clouds -- God's handiwork, who has created
everything very well. He is aware of the things you do.

So why would Allah Almighty
say that the mountains are moving like the clouds?

We know that the mountains look quite fixed. Not even
earth quakes can move them from their places! So why would
Allah Almighty say that they are passing like the passing of the
clouds?

1- Because like in Dahaha
دحاها
and wadaAAha
وضعها,
which both mean that the earth is moving on a fixed course,
tamurru marra
تمر مر, further supports
this by saying that even the heavy and fixed mountains that look
idol and impossible to move, and indeed moving!

2- Like in Dahaha
دحاها
, where it means to expand, the expansion of the earth did
indeed cause, and is
still causing, for the mountains to move! Not
only mountains, but ENTIRE CONTINENTS moving or drifting away
from each others as the earth started to split when it expanded.
Remember that the earth used to be one jigsaw puzzle and then
started to expand.

Furthermore, Allah Almighty Said:

Noble Verse(s) 78:6

Yusuf Ali:

[078:006] Have We not made the
earth as a wide expanse(rocking cradle),

Transliteration:

[078:006] Alam najAAali al-arda
mihadan

Arabic (from right to left):

‏78:6
الم نجعل الارض مهادا

Abdullah Yusuf Ali have translated
مهادا
mihaada to mean "a wide expanse".
However, in the following Noble Verses, he translated the root
word for مهادا
mihaada to mean "cradle":

Noble Verse(s) 19:29

Yusuf Ali:

[019:029] But she pointed to the
babe. They said: "How can we talk to one who is a child
in the cradle?"

Yet, in other Noble Verses, he translated the
same exact word as
"like carpet spread out":

Noble Verse(s) 20:53

Yusuf Ali:

[020:053] "He Who has, made for you
the earth like a carpet
spread out; has enabled you to go about
therein by roads (and channels); and has sent down water
from the sky." With it have We produced diverse pairs of
plants each separate from the others.

Is the bed here a rocking bed or a fixed one? The
following pictures about the cosmos will clearly prove that the
earth's axial tilt and rotation
around the sun indeed resemble a
rocking bed:

Let us now look at our planet earth's "Axial Tilt"
that makes it look like a cradle:

So indeed, the earth being a مهاد
(mihaad) does mean that it is like a
rocking cradle, since its root, مهد
(mahd), means just that.

Furthermore, Allah Almighty Said:

Noble Verse(s) 35:41

Yusuf Ali:

[035:041] It is God Who sustains
the heavens and the earth, lest they
cease
(to function) (stray from their fixed paths and
fall into complete destruction): and if
they should fail
stray, there is none - not one - can
sustain them thereafter: Verily He is Most Forbearing,
Oft-Forgiving.

يقال: أزال الله زواله أي
أذهب الله حركته و تصرّفه it is said:
azaala Allah zawalahu, which means Allah Almighty has
removed his movement and control. In other words, the
person became paralized!

Indeed, if there was no balance in the gravitational pulls in
the Universe, the earth and the Universe would've strayed away
into complete disarray and total destruction. It is indeed
due to Allah Almighty's Mercy and Will that
the earth's moving course in
the Universe is under full control from Allah Almighty.

1- Proofs from Dr. Zaghlool
Al-Naggar:

The Arabic word "dahaha":

Here is what Dr. Zaghlool Al-Naggar said about the Arabic word in question:

The "dahu" in the Arabic Language means to extend and even out. It is
said: "daha" the thing; "yad'hu dahwan". These terms can mean he either
evened out and extended it or he threw it and rolled it. It is also said:
"the rain daha the stones from the face of the earth," which means it rolled it
and washed it away. It is also said: "The horse passed by yad'hu dahwan,"
which means he is beating his foot on the ground and yad'hu its sand.
Also, the ostrich's mad'hi means its laying of its
eggs, and "ad'hiha" is the nest where its chicks are born.

End of translation.

So as we clearly see, all of the above Arabic words that are derived from "daha"
mean:

1- To extend.

2- To roll.

3- To even out.

4- Causing to become egg-shaped
or creating, making or producing eggs (see the ostrich's mad'hi
example above).

All of these meanings perfectly apply to our planet Earth and the stages that
it went through!

[ Also according to Wikipedia: "The
Earth's shape is very close to an oblatespheroid—a
rounded shape with a bulge around the equator—although
the precise shape (the geoid) varies
from this by up to 100 metres (327 ft)." (Source)
]

One day, a friend came to me carrying a book titled "Coran et la
Science la Bible le" for the author, Maurice Boukay. I
read it with with setting a new time-record due to the seriousness
that I saw in the theological thought and its relationship to
science. The author was precise in gathering the correct meanings of
the Quranic vocabularies and delivering them uncompromised to the
brain of his reader, meanwhile a number of the Muslim and non-Muslim
authors have adulterated the translations of these Words, and as a
result the latter not only wasn't able to Their real intended
meanings, but their translations were far from being anywhere close
to the Scientific Truth of the Words. This is what the author tried
to set straight; he corrected the meaning of "Alaq" and "Dahu Al-Ard"
that other authors have mistranslated. Allah Almighty gave the
scientific statements during an age that lacked the basics of the
applicable and theoretical sciences. What's really applauding is
that Maurice Baukay didn't settle for the meaning of Daha
that was given to him - that which some have tried to convince him
with it - so he set out and traveled to the Arabic countries seeking
some of the archeologies of the Arabic language that was attacked by
the enemies and he found
that the meaning of "daha" is still used by the Libyans today in
reference to the egg.They call one egg "dahia," which is
derived from the root words Daha, Yadhu, Dahwa, which all mean that
the object is made or has become like an egg. And in another
meaning, the earth is not shaped like a ball, but rather like an
egg, instead. And no translator has reached his results before
him..

5- Further
proofs from Arabic:

Also, further proofs about the word Dahaha meaning to do a
circular activity. The following are very
well-known Arabic words that are derived from "Dah":

1-Dahraja,
means to roll down as in rolling down a rock from the top of the
hill.

2- Tadahraja,
means he physically rolled down, as in a person rolling his body
down.

6-The Palestinian Dahraja dance!

Article #1:

" "Dahraja" a
Palestinian Women Folk Dance.

By: Nadya el-Butmeh.

This article
defines and describes “Dahraja", " Dahraja" is a dance
performed by a group of women accompanied by group singing
of some popular folksongs. Women, when performing this dance, stand in a closed circle
and hold hands.
They continuously alternate between moving in toward the center of
the circle then back away from it.

The
specific steps in this rhythmic movement, however, vary according to
the specific song accompanying the dance." (Source)

[057:025] We sent our messengers supported by clear proofs, and we sent
down to them the scripture and the law, that the people may uphold
justice. And we sent down the iron,
wherein there is strength, and many benefits for the people. All this in
order for GOD to distinguish those who would support Him and His
messengers, on faith. GOD is Powerful, Almighty.

Also, in the
following video, we'll see that due to the tidal gravitational pulls,
the earth bulged and became
EGG-SHAPED before its impact with the iron-rich asteroid that
was sent down to it, and collided with it and formed our earth's iron core.
This video demonstrates that even the tidal gravitational pulls do also
contribute to the shaping of our earth today, since it is egg-shaped:

Also, see below for ample proofs from Arabic.

2-So why didn't
the Arabs and the Prophet understand dahaha
as earth is spherical and egg-shaped 1,500 years ago?

Narrated Abu Huraira: "I heard Allah's Apostle saying,
"I have been sent with Jawami al-Kalim (i.e., the shortest expression
carrying the widest meanings), and I was made victorious with awe (caste
into the hearts of the enemy), and while I was sleeping, the keys of the
treasures of the earth were brought to me and were put in my hand." Muhammad
said, Jawami'-al-Kalim means that Allah expresses in one or two statements or
thereabouts the numerous matters that used to be written in the books revealed
before (the coming of) the Prophet.
(Translation of Sahih Bukhari, Interpretation of Dreams, Volume 9, Book 87,
Number 141)"

As we clearly see, the Prophet said that he was sent to reveal pithy
words that encompass many meanings and topics, which are short in
quantity and rich in meanings and interpretations. The Arabic word dahaha in Noble
Verse 79:30 above did have multiple meanings and uses. One of them
was when one refers to an egg (see the
proofs in Arabic here). Another was when referring to making
something
extended, spread out, stretched and/or expanded. This is
an example of how Allah Almighty uses scientific notions in the Noble Quran when
He talked about how He created certain things. He gave words that had
multiple meanings and interpretations to them to make the Noble Quran truly be
for all times and all places, and to enable it to truly be the Everlasting
and Never Ending Divine Miracle that will always prove the Prophethood of
Muhammad, peace be upon him.

Imagine the direct claim about the earth
being spherical or egg-shaped!

While even though Allah Almighty clearly said in Noble
Verse 79:30 that the earth is egg-shaped, but let us further explore what
would've happened if Allah Almighty Willed for Prophet Muhammad to have the
knowledge about the earth and to spell it out more clearly in Arabic to his
followers 1,500 years ago:

1- First of all, it is important
to know that the Prophet of Islam was already viewed as a mad man by many.
Even his companions had doubts about him especially when they had to endure all
of the pain and sacrifice that they had to go through from losing their wealth,
family and everything they had in life for the Message that he brought to them.
It was a natural inclination for them to doubt him and to have serious
second thoughts about him:

"Say (to them O Muhammad
SAW): "I exhort you on one (thing) only: that you stand up for Allahs sake in
pairs and singly, and reflect (within yourselves the life history of the Prophet
SAW): there is no madness in your companion (Muhammad SAW), he is
only a warner to you in face of a severe torment." (The Noble Quran, 34:46)"

2- Let's us suppose that the
following claims were made by the Prophet:

i- The earth is egg-shaped.

ii- We are not standing on top of the earth
(north pole), but rather we are standing on the SIDE OF THE EARTH,
and right underneath our feet there are people who are living and standing on
the opposite side of the planet! And we are too living under their feet on
the opposite side of the world.

Just imagine how the bedouins would've taken this message who already had
serious doubts about the Prophet and thought that he was a mad man. Imagine how CRAZY the
Prophet of Islam would've really sounded to them! That is why Allah
Almighty, by His Divine Wisdom and Mercy, chose to speak in the language of
notions so that the right interpretation would slowly and surely be discovered
by man as man keeps developing in knowledge and technology. Dahaha back
then meant expanded, which is also scientifically true. (See
proof) Look at how the continents of the earth are shaped like.
They look like they've been one round and all-connected piece of land in the
past and then slowly spread out and split into the continents that we have today
due to an expansion of the earth from its sides. Please visit:
http://www.expanding-earth.org/ for more details. You can also visit
my article at:
http://www.answering-christianity.com/earth_in_islam.htm for more Noble
Verses on the expansion of the earth.

The bringing forth of the earth's waters (oceans, seas, lakes,
rivers, etc...) after the expansion of the planet earth.A new scientific video, from a Western scientist, confirms the
stunning Scientific Miracle in Noble Verses
79:30-32 regarding
Allah Almighty bringing forth the waters (oceans, seas, lakes, rivers, etc...)
after He expanded the earth. Scientists have proven that our planet earth,
indeed, was at one point all covered with land with shallow and limited
bodies of water. The vast bodies of water that we have today,
where water today covers more than 70% of the entire globe, happened after
the expansion of the earth -- precisely as Allah Almighty mentioned in the
Noble Quran. Scientists have only recently confirmed it!

And today since we also know that the earth is
egg-shaped and dahaha does also mean that in Arabic (See
detailed proof), then the real hidden
meanings of the Word had been more and more revealed to us, and only Allah
Almighty Knows what more interpretations we'll have in the future.

See the following sub-section below for ample details and proofs in
Arabic!

Also, ample proofs for several of the Glorious Quran's Arabic words'
definitions, from
my Arabic-English and
English-Arabic dictionaries, that prove that the earth is indeed
spherical, rotating around its axle, and is suspended in space, are provided in
the following important link:

Allah Almighty's Miraculous choice
of choosing one Arabic word to talk about the earth's expansion from its sides
and its physical egg-shape is truly amazing. But the hidden Miracles of
the word don't stop here. Astronomers have also discovered that the earth's
orbit around the sun is also shaped like an egg!

The S-shaped moon orbit!

This is
not the only time Allah Almighty used a notion for astronomy.
In another Noble Verse, He described the shape of the moon's entire
orbit around the earth as a shape of an old and dried-out date
tree's branch, also scientifically known and confirmed today as
S-shaped.
The shape of the old and dried-out branch of a date tree does
resemble the letter "S". I provided images in the article that
prove this.

The
elliptial orbits of the moon around the Earth and the
Earth around the sun have a substantial effect on the
Earth’s tides. Once a month, at perigee, when the
moon is closest to the Earth, tide-generating forces are
higher than usual, producing above average ranges in the
tides. About two weeks later, at apogee, when the moon
is farthest from the Earth, the lunar tide-raising force
is smaller, and the tidal ranges are less than average.
When the Earth is closest to the sun (perihelion),
around January 2 of the calendar year, tidal ranges are
enhanced. At aphelion, when the Earth is furthest from
the sun, around July 2, tidal ranges are reduced (Sumich,
J.L., 1996; Thurman, H.V., 1994).

(b)- The
earth bulged before collision to be an EGG-SHAPED, and as it rotates around its
own axle, it also resembles an egg-shape (see also section C, below):

Again, in the
following video, we'll see that due to the tidal gravitational pulls,
the earth bulged and became
EGG-SHAPED before its impact with the iron-rich asteroid that
was sent down to it, and collided with it and formed our earth's iron core.
This video demonstrates that even the tidal gravitational pulls do also
contribute to the shaping of our earth today, since it is egg-shaped:

(c)-
The earth is shaped like an egg:

(A statement from the United States of America's
Department of Energy)

Earth: Round or Egg-shaped

Question: Well, I was wondering about the Earth. Well, I would like to know if the Earth is really not round, but elliptical as some say.jason p brechin

Answer: The Earth is not quite spherical, due to what is know as "rotationalflattening." It's not egg-shaped, either, it's shaped more like a pumpkin. Theradius of the Earth at the equator is 6,378 km; at the poles it is 6,356 km.Jupiter, which rotates once every 10 hours, is even much squashed than theEarth. Jupiter's equatorial radius is70,850 km; it's polar radius is 66,550 km.richard a gerber

"MOOS: Though some of the charts in the science
articles reminded us of the old Buttmaster ads. Forget the gluteus maximus, scientists say the Earth is shaped like a pumpkin, with the weight of
the polar ice caps squishing the middle.

But as the ice caps have melted, relieving some pressure, the Earth has been
getting rounder, until now. Suddenly Earth's waistline is expanding."

Also, Allah Almighty didn't say "chicken egg", even though some chicken eggs are also spherical.
He Said egg-shaped, which didn't limit the shape of the earth to any specific
animal-egg. And like I said:

All eggs vary
in shapes, roundness and sizes!

Also, the quote above "Suddenly Earth's waistline is
expanding"
further proves that the earth's shape is not fixed. It is variant
just like that of the eggs even when they're from the same
animal! The following articles demonstrate how the earth's shape
is changing:

3-"And He has set firm
mountains in the earth so that it would not shake with you.(The Noble Quran, 16:15)"
and "Have We not made the earth as a bed, and the
mountains as pegs? (The Noble Quran, 78:6-7)"
Geologists did indeed confirm that mountains do prevent the earth from
shaking while it's rotating around its own axle! Please visit:
http://www.answering-christianity.com/mountains.htm.

Eliminating the
childish
word games:

The point here is not to play word and title games. If the earth is
either shaped like an egg
(eggs do vary in shapes) or a pumpkin
(pumpkins do also vary in shapes),
this still wouldn't change anything. In the images of the earth
above, we clearly see the earth as egg-shaped. One can also
suggest that it also looks like a pumpkin. The scientists are not
GOD Almighty! Their choice of the word pumpkin doesn't nullify
Allah Almighty's choice of "egg", because the main point of Allah
Almighty's use of the word dahaha (which means egg and many other
things), even though eggs do vary in shapes and sizes and this was
known to man 1,500 years ago, is that:

1- Unlike pumpkin in Arabic,
dahaha had multiple meanings that perfectly matched up with describing the
earth.

2- Allah Almighty talked about
the earth's expansion.

3- Allah Almighty talked about
the earth's shape being spherical and also at the same time not being quite
perfect in its diameters. Eggs are not perfect in their diameters
nor are they
all the same in shape as we clearly see above.
Therefore, Allah Almighty's word-choice is not contradicting with science.

4- It seems that Allah Almighty
also meant to cover the earth's orbit around the sun which also happens to be
shaped like an egg!

So clearly and indisputably, Allah Almighty had a clear purpose and point for
using this precise Noble Word and Notion to describe several things that define
the earth, which were not known to man in the past. Indeed all Praise and
Glory are due to Allah Almighty alone! Allah Almighty Said:

"We will soon
show them Our signs in the Universe and
INSIDE THEIR SELVES, until it will become quite clear to
them that it is the truth. Is it not sufficient as regards your Lord that He is
a witness over all things? (The Noble Quran,
41:53)"

4-
Conclusion:

Again, the Noble Quran is filled with scientific statements and notions.
These are statements of Allah Almighty describing how He created things on earth
and in the Universe. What's most amazing is that all of these scientific
statements and notions had been proven to be in perfect agreement
with science and our modern-day scientific discoveries. Allah
Almighty made the Noble Quran be Prophet Muhammad's (peace be upon him)
Everlasting Divine Miracle and proof for Prophethood. The Holy Book certainly
stood the test of time 1,500 years ago with Its Claims, Prophecies and
Miraculous language eloquence, and it does again and again in our day today with
Its overwhelming agreement with science and discoveries that were not known to
man 1,500 years ago.

Allah Almighty clearly intended to mention several Miracles, through the
single Word dahaha, to again and again prove to us that the more we learn and
advance in knowledge and technology the more we'll discover the Noble Quran to
be the True and Holy Word of GOD Almighty!

Indeed, all Praise and Glory are due to Allah Almighty alone for making the
Noble Quran be the Perfect and Everlasting Miracle, for us humans, out of all of
His Divine Miracles! And may Allah Almighty send His Peace, Mercy and
Blessings upon our Beloved and Blessed Prophet, Teacher and Role Model,
Muhammad. Ameen.

the following important link:

'' Blessed is He who has
placed in the sky great stars and placed therein
a [burning] lamp and luminous moon.'' (25:61)

In the above Ayah Allah says He has placed
great stars in the Heaven and also place therein
a lamp (Sun) and a luminous moon. Okay I don't
understand why Allah differentiated the stars
and the Sun. Why does Allah only address the sun
as a lamp while we know that there are much more
bigger luminous stars than the sun in the
universe? And does this verse mean there is only
one Sun and one moon in the Heavens? But it's
not possible as I have told you earlier that our
Universe consists of many Sun like stars and
also Moons.

Please clarify this.

Answer:

Hello
brother Farhan!

I wanted to let you know that this verse (25:61) uses
the word that is
more
accurately translated as constellations.
So right away, you know that
this verse is referring to the human perception
of the sky! We see constellations and
patterns in the sky, so it is our perception. So
this verse is adhering to human perception to
explain a beautiful phenomena of creation. Next
you notice that the Quran says that Allah placed
a burning lamp in the sky and a moon. In no way
does this mean there is only one burning lamp or
one moon, it is just stating that there is a
burning lamp and a moon in the sky.

There are a few things that you need to notice
about this verse. In no way does this verse say
that the sun isn't a star, or that there is only
one moon.

Next there is another verse in the Quran that
addresses the STARS as being
LAMPS, just as the sun is.

Quran 24:35 Allah
is the Light of the heavens and the earth. The
similitude of His light is as a niche
wherein
is a lamp. The lamp is
in a glass. The glass is as it were a shining
star. (This lamp is) kindled from [the
oil of] a blessed tree, an olive
neither of the East nor of the West, whose oil
would almost glow forth (of itself) though no
fire touched it. Light upon light. Allah guideth
unto His light whom He will. And Allah speaketh
to mankind in allegories, for Allah is Knower of
all things.

Question:

thanks
brother.

But can I have some more proof that Quran
doesn't say that there is only one moon and one
sun? Can you show anymore verse where Allah
refers to the stars as lamps? And can you make
it more clearer why do you think the verse is
talking about human perception? It will
Inshallah convince me.

I would like to add that Allah Almighty created
the creatures on earth to live by day and
night. Some planets, and even parts on this
earth, have very long days cycles and very long
nights cycles. Normal life on earth was
designed by an equal rotation of the day and
night. So by Divine Design, Allah Almighty
placed the moon to be our night light, and for
the sun to be our glorious star.

Furthermore, Allah Almighty Said the following:

‏91:1 والشمس وضحاها
‏91:2 والقمر اذا تلاها
‏91:3 والنهار اذا جلاها

"By
the sun and its radiant light, and the moon that
trails (and reflects) its light.
By the day that magnifies
and glorifies (جلاها)
its brightness.
(The Noble Quran, 91:1-3)"

Did you know our shining and glorious days, on a
clear day, are a magnification of the sun's rays
by our atomosphere? Outside our atmosphere, the
universe is pitch black! And Allah Almighty
Said that it is our day that magnifies and
glorifies the sun's brightness. Please visit:

But can I have some more proof that Quran
doesn't say that there is only one moon and one
sun? Can you show anymore verse where Allah
refers to the stars as lamps? And can you make
it more clearer why do you think the verse is
talking about human perception? It will
Inshallah convince me.

PLEASE HELP

[067:005]And
we have, (from of old), adorned the lowest
heaven with Lamps, and We have made such (Lamps)
(as) missiles to drive away the Evil Ones, and
have prepared for them the Penalty of the
Blazing Fire.

''
It is not allowable for the sun to reach the
moon, nor does the night overtake the day, but
each, in an orbit, is swimming.''(36:40)

Enbiya/33
It is He Who created the Night and the Day, and
the sun and the moon: all (of them) swim in an
orbit.

Okay in some articles it is said that the above
verses are talking about the motion of
everything including sun,moon,earth,planets and
stars. But how? Because the verses only mention
sun, moon and earth? If I say Ibrahim and Ali,
Sami and Abdel, Ahmad and Uthman everyone is a
good player or all are good players will it
imply also the people whose names are
unmentioned? Can anyone explain this in detail?

And does Quran say anything about earth's
motion around the Sun? And Moon's motion around
the earth?

Answer:

''
It is not allowable for the sun to reach the
moon, nor does the night overtake the day, but
each, in an orbit, is swimming.''(36:40)

As'salamu Alaikum dear brother,

People were asking the Prophet, peace be upon
him, if the sun and the moon were ever going to
collide. The people thought that the sun and
the moon were both running on one lane or line
or orbit or path, and that they're together, and
that if one slows down, then the other would
catch up to it and they'd ultimately
collide. Allah
Almighty responded to this nonsense
by making it absolutely clear that the sun and
the moon are traveling in entirely different
orbits, and that they could not catch up to each
others and collide. So what the empty anti-Islamics
of today try to prove as a scientific blunder in
the Holy Quran turns out to be an accurate
Scientific Statement and a Scientific Miracle of
its time.

Enbiya/33
It is He Who created the Night and the Day, and
the sun and the moon: all (of them) swim in an
orbit.

Same exact reponse as above. Yes, they're not
on the same orbit. This is Scientifically
estabilished. And again, the Holy Quran Said
that
the moon's orbit is S-Shaped.
Allah Almighty never said the same about the
sun's orbit.

Okay in some
articles it is said that the above verses are
talking about the motion of everything including
sun,moon,earth,planets and stars. But how?
Because the verses only mention sun, moon and
earth? If I say Ibrahim and Ali, Sami and Abdel,
Ahmad and Uthman everyone is a good player or
all are good players will it imply also the
people whose names are unmentioned? Can anyone
explain this in detail?

And does Quran say anything about earth's motion
around the Sun? And Moon's motion around the
earth?

Allah Almighty started the Noble Verse with
speaking only about the sun and the moon, and
the night and the day. But ended it by saying
ALL swimming in their independent orbits. This
is referring here to all celestial bodies in the
Universe. This is further clearly proven in
other Noble Verses where Allah Almighty talking
about the orbits of the celestial bodies, and
how once in space, traveling becomes in orbits.
Please visit the following video of Dr.
Zaghloul Al-Najjar. He
thoroughly and beautifully explained this
beautiful Miracle in the Holy Quran with ample
examples and details:

This is also all demonstrated in good
details in the following
video file:

Also, all celestial bodies
are
يعرجون
Yaa'rujoon (traveling
in orbits [2]
[3]
[4]
[5]) in space.
This
video
is about Noble Verses 32:5, 34:2, 57:4,
70:3-4 and others, and the Arabic words
عرج
, عروج, معارج
and معراج that all refer to
"going in an orbital and curvy path" in the
Glorious Quran and our Islamic Texts.

The Miracle of the
Plate Tectonics,
mountains' formation, and the earth's Spherical Expansion:

My detailed proofs about the earth spread out
spherically are listed here:

And the earth after that He has spherically expanded
Brought forth from it its water and pasture
and theMOUNTAINS
HE SET FIRMLY.

Indeed, scientists have proven that:

1-
The earth has spherically expanded.

2-
The earth produced its water and pasture on a large scale as a
result.I
have posted a Scientific Video from History Channel proving this:

3-
The mountains due to this expansion were formed;due
to the plate tectonics movements,
which caused for land to be pushed on top of each other, which
formed mountains and hills. You can learn about this at:

Below in this article, we'll
see the ample proofs that the earth was indeed
SPREAD OUT SPHERICALLY.
And Scientists have proven that water does indeed originate from its
planets when they're hot enough and are located in the Goldilocks
Zone when orbiting their sun.

As thoroughly detailed in this detailed article,
I thoroughly demonstrated using 7 encyclopedic dictionaries that
DAHA دحاها
means:

3- To make
something roll,
as inDAHA
the barrel from the top of the hill,
which means he rolled it down from the top of the hill. Also, this
is where the Arabic word DAHRAJA is derived from, which means to
make something roll down.

4- To make
something round.
I used several examples forROUND
AND BULGED TUMMY,
and making round objects. I even used a Hadith from Prophet
Muhammad, peace be upon him, when he said:

Also the dictionary says:الدحداح هو المستدير الململم The dahdaah is the
person who is ROUND and STOCKY.

و بطنٌ مُنداحُ أي خارخٌ مُدوّر His tummy is
mun-daahun means it is OUT THERE AND ROUND مُدوّر.

So when Allah Almighty DAHA THE EARTH, it means that
Allah AlmightyEXPANDED
IT SPHERICALLYthrough
rotating around itself and moving in its orbit in space. And this
is why Allah Almighty Said after that (after He DAHAHA), He brought
forth from itits
water and pasture.
Science has proven this to be 100% accurate and True:

1-
Water was brought forth from the earth - Science confirmed it and
the Holy Quran claimed it 1400 years ago:

Note:
In Article #3'S video
in the article, the collision of
the iron-planet
made our earth EGG-SHAPED,
according to the Scientists and the video.

In this Hadith, above, he certainly seems to have
known this fact very well. And this Hadith is even older than Sahih
Bukhari. It is important to know that Imam Bukhari and others
have declared that they have
discarded thousands of Hadiths:

"The
twosahihcollections
did not gather the totality of the authenticahadithas
proved by al-Bukhari's
testimony: "I
have not included in my bookal-Jami`but
what is authentic, and I left out among the authentic
for fear of [excessive] length."

"...
Bukhari, collected twenty thousand of them, of which he rejected ten thousand,
accounting them untrue.Of
the remaining ten thousand he accepted only 7,275, declaring the
rest to be untrustworthy.
Abu Da'ud accepted as authentic only 4,800 rules out 50,000."

This is to keep their volumes as simple and manageable as possible.
So it is quite possible that the Prophet spoke about the earth being
spherical, and the Glorious Quran certainly did, and
people just dismissed them as nonsense.
I have covered your question in great details at:

Also, ample proofs for several of the Glorious Quran's Arabic words'
definitions, from
my Arabic-English and
English-Arabic dictionaries, that prove that the earth is indeed
spherical, rotating around its axle, and is suspended in space, are provided in

response today, insha'Allah (if Allah Almighty
is Willing).

Question:

And
the moon darkens.(75: 8 )

And
the sun and the moon are joined,(75:9)

Can anyone explain the above verses? Why Allah
says that the moon and the sun will be joined?
As sun is much bigger than the moon , it should
swallow it not get joined with it. I'm confused.
I have read some articles where they say that
through these verses Allah says that Sun will
swallow the Moon before the Final Hour. But the
verse uses ''JOINED'' not ''SWALLOWED''. Or is
it talking about Solar eclipse? If so then the
translation might me wrong.

[075:007] At length, when the sight is
dazed,
[075:008] And the moon is buried in
darkness.
[075:009] And the sun and moon are
joined together,-
[075:010] That Day will Man say: "Where
is the refuge?"

I believe this is a Prophecy about a Great
Eclipse that will take place. This actually
makes sense, since when the Hour Comes, the
Universe's orbits' path will turn into a
spegetti mess on a massive scale, and all
celestial bodies will be colliding violently
with each others. So it makes sense that:

1- Our atmosphere will change, and hence it
will greatly effect our visions, since the sun
rays are all magnified and become glorious, as
we know them, through our atmosphere as Allah
Almighty mentioned clearly in the Glorious
Quran:

‏91:1 والشمس وضحاها
‏91:2 والقمر اذا تلاها
‏91:3 والنهار اذا جلاها

"By
the sun and its radiant light, and the moon that
trails (and reflects) its light.
By the day that magnifies
and glorifies (جلاها) its brightness.
(The Noble Quran, 91:1-3)"

The following pictures certainly prove the
points above. Another point worth mentioning is
that when the Hour Comes, the sun's rays might
be much much more than what they already are
today. There are several Noble Verses in the
Glorious Quran that indicate that this will
actually happen:

In the case, the lunar eclipse would be far greater
than what it appears to be in the following
pictures:

When watching the lunar eclipse outside, special
Eye Shields are required to prevent blindness
and/or permanent eye damages, especially to the
cornea:

2- Because of the chaos in the orbits, our
solar system's orbits will also go in chaos, and
hence the sun's and the moon's orbits will cross
each others, and an eclipse will occur as a
result.

3- When the events in point #2 happen, then the
sky will darken and the moon will be buried in
darkness.

Great question dear brother, Farhan! I will add
this on the website with more elaborations,
Insha'Allah.

Take care,
Osama Abdallah

Question:

Assalamualykum.

I'm still confused about these verse:

And the sun and the moon are joined,(75:9)

Even if it is talking about solar eclipse, why
it says that sun and moon will be joined? We
know during Solar Eclipse, the moon comes in
between the Sun and the Earth. Moon is not
joined. Please, can you explain this in detail?

Answer:

Wa Alaikum
As'salam dear brother,

It is possible that the moon will eventually be
swallowed by the sun, along with all of our
solar system's celestial bodies. We've seen
above already how this Noble Verse is talking
about the Great Lunar Eclipse when the Hour
Comes. As to the language of the sun and the
moon will be joined together, while it is about
a lunar eclipse, but it could also be referring
to the moon eventually leaving its orbit here
around earth and be devoured by the sun. You
see, the two immediate celestial bodies to us
humans that our naked eyes could see up close
and personal, from our view here on earth, are:

1- The moon.
2- The sun.

And they are the most relevant and vital
celestial bodies for our life here on earth. So
if Allah Almighty spoke in limited language
about the sun and the moon, it doesn't limit the
event to just them. But to us humans, since
these two celestial bodies are what we see in
considerable size and clarity from earth here,
then they are the most relevant to us. Plus as
I said, they are the most relevant and vital to
our life here on earth as well. So Allah
Almighty putting emphasis on the sun and the
moon wouldn't mean that the Noble Verse is
limited to just them.

As to the Arabic جمع (joined)
in Noble Verse 75:9 above, it could very well be
referring to being aligned together according to
our view and perspective here on earth.
جمع is both a noun and a simple past in
Arabic:

1- جمع means a group for a
noun.
2- جمع means joined together,
came together, summoned together, brought
together, put together for a simple past.

The Noble Word would be very appropriate and
suitable if Allah Almighty spoke about the Great
Lunar Eclipse will happen when the Hour Comes.
And we see very clearly from the full context in
Noble Verses 75:7-10, in the previous
posts above, that Allah Almighty did indeed
speak about a Lunar Eclipse will happen when the
Hour comes.

I know I've written an article years ago about
these Noble Verses. I will update it with these
new posts today, Insha'Allah (if Allah Almighty
is Willing).

This is
not the only time Allah Almighty used a notion for astronomy.
In another Noble Verse, He described the shape of the moon's entire
orbit around the earth as a shape of an old and dried-out date
tree's branch, also scientifically known and confirmed today as
S-shaped.
The shape of the old and dried-out branch of a date tree does
resemble the letter "S". I provided images in the article that
prove this.

The bringing forth of the earth's waters (oceans, seas, lakes,
rivers, etc...) after the expansion of the planet earth.A new scientific video, from a Western scientist, confirms the
stunning Scientific Miracle in Noble Verses
79:30-32 regarding
Allah Almighty bringing forth the waters (oceans, seas, lakes, rivers, etc...)
after He expanded the earth. Scientists have proven that our planet earth,
indeed, was at one point all covered with land with shallow and limited
bodies of water. The vast bodies of water that we have today,
where water today covers more than 70% of the entire globe, happened after
the expansion of the earth -- precisely as Allah Almighty mentioned in the
Noble Quran. Scientists have only recently confirmed it!

And the earth after that He has spherically expanded
Brought forth from it its water and pasture
and theMOUNTAINS
HE SET FIRMLY.

Indeed, scientists have proven that:

1-
The earth has spherically expanded.

2-
The earth produced its water and pasture on a large scale as a
result.I
have posted a Scientific Video from History Channel proving this:

3-
The mountains due to this expansion were formed;due
to the plate tectonics movements,
which caused for land to be pushed on top of each other, which
formed mountains and hills. You can learn about this at:

Below in this article, we'll
see the ample proofs that the earth was indeed
SPREAD OUT SPHERICALLY.
And Scientists have proven that water does indeed originate from its
planets when they're hot enough and are located in the Goldilocks
Zone when orbiting their sun.

As thoroughly detailed in this detailed article,
I thoroughly demonstrated using 7 encyclopedic dictionaries that
DAHA دحاها
means:

3- To make
something roll,
as inDAHA
the barrel from the top of the hill,
which means he rolled it down from the top of the hill. Also, this
is where the Arabic word DAHRAJA is derived from, which means to
make something roll down.

4- To make
something round.
I used several examples forROUND
AND BULGED TUMMY,
and making round objects. I even used a Hadith from Prophet
Muhammad, peace be upon him, when he said:

Also the dictionary says:الدحداح هو المستدير الململم The dahdaah is the
person who is ROUND and STOCKY.

و بطنٌ مُنداحُ أي خارخٌ مُدوّر His tummy is
mun-daahun means it is OUT THERE AND ROUND مُدوّر.

So when Allah Almighty DAHA THE EARTH, it means that
Allah AlmightyEXPANDED
IT SPHERICALLYthrough
rotating around itself and moving in its orbit in space. And this
is why Allah Almighty Said after that (after He DAHAHA), He brought
forth from itits
water and pasture.
Science has proven this to be 100% accurate and True:

1-
Water was brought forth from the earth - Science confirmed it and
the Holy Quran claimed it 1400 years ago:

Note:
In Article #3'S video
in the article, the collision of
the iron-planet
made our earth EGG-SHAPED,
according to the Scientists and the video.

In this Hadith, above, he certainly seems to have
known this fact very well. And this Hadith is even older than Sahih
Bukhari. It is important to know that Imam Bukhari and others
have declared that they have
discarded thousands of Hadiths:

"The
twosahihcollections
did not gather the totality of the authenticahadithas
proved by al-Bukhari's
testimony: "I
have not included in my bookal-Jami`but
what is authentic, and I left out among the authentic
for fear of [excessive] length."

"...
Bukhari, collected twenty thousand of them, of which he rejected ten thousand,
accounting them untrue.Of
the remaining ten thousand he accepted only 7,275, declaring the
rest to be untrustworthy.
Abu Da'ud accepted as authentic only 4,800 rules out 50,000."

This is to keep their volumes as simple and manageable as possible.
So it is quite possible that the Prophet spoke about the earth being
spherical, and the Glorious Quran certainly did, and
people just dismissed them as nonsense.
I have covered your question in great details at:

Also, ample proofs for several of the Glorious Quran's Arabic words'
definitions, from
my Arabic-English and
English-Arabic dictionaries, that prove that the earth is indeed
spherical, rotating around its axle, and is suspended in space, are provided in

Thank you.

Answer:

As'salamu Alaikum dear brother,

The Glorious Quran is very clear about the earth is:

1- Spherical.2- Suspended in Space.3- Rotating around itself. (emphasis on dahaha and
its derivatives)4- Is traveling in Space.

This is also all demonstrated in good
details in the following
video file:

And the earth after that He has spherically expanded
Brought forth from it its water and pasture
and theMOUNTAINS
HE SET FIRMLY.
